He’s 93, and seen some really annoying stuff, but still enjoys a good joke. I will try to smile more, I think it’s good for me.

I’m cooking some chicken soup, listening to Little Feat – I’m a sweet Chiquita, and I’m going to have a fat man in the bathtub later – I ain’t seen the bright lights of Memphis, but I got it alright.

I drove all of Chico the last few days and I have noticed that 2 giant companies have been snapping up commercial real estate everywhere I go so the city council and bureaucrats must have been doing somehting right.

Anyway, these two companies, I see their signs everywhere and I think pretty soon they should start hiring people, I don’t know what type of businesses they are in, but they are HUGE and taking over more real estate than any company I have ever seen. They are named “For Lease” and “Space Available” :)

Like I said before, the city ban goes into effect on Jan 1. The state ban goes into effect on July 1.

There are several cities throughout the state, even the country, that already have bag bans so Walmart is already dealing with this. It just seems stupid for a bankrupt city like Chico to go through the costs of implementing a city law that will only be in effect for six months when the state law takes over.

It’s the new court house – can’t remember whether it’s superior or municipal. Our muni court is pretty shabby, tucked into a little building by Bidwell Junior, on the back of the Weights and Measures and County Ag offices there on Esplanade. I’d think they’d need a bigger muni court, but yeah, I also think it was gravy given to New Urban Builders, arranged by Jane Dolan and Scott Gruendl. That’s just my belief, based on a pretty longtime friendship between Dolan, Gruendl and DiGiovanni.

DG almost went into bankruptcy a few years back, but Gruendl and friends arranged for the city to take $7 million out of the RDA and buy Merriam Park from DG, then turn around and give it to the low-income builders who are going to put in the housing – a firm from Fresno, can’t think of the name.

And I’m guessing, he feels the ban keeps our city in with other “modern” cities. He could give a shit about what this means to the average person. I’m guessing he thinks we’re neanderthals for not going along with it. He’s one of those people who holds themselves above the rest of the population.

Thanks for the news of this new ballot measure – don’t lose heart. As the bag ban moves into law, and people start noticing they’re paying for bags that end up in their garbage can (because I’m sure baggers will go back to putting one or two items in a bag again), they’ll be getting pissed off enough to sign.

I know how you feel about leaving the state – but drive to Nevada – yeccccccchhhhhhh! I’m not going to say what reeeeeaaaallly bugs me about the people in Southern California and Nevada, but I’ll say, Northern California is where it’s at. If we were too happy we’d turn into some sort of sloth, anyway, like that episode of Star Trek where Spock runs into Jill Ireland.

Do you know what that huge empty building off of Bruce Road out by East 20the is? It looks like it is still underconstruction and it is all fenced off. There are signs on the fence that say Otto Construction and New Urban Builders which I think is run by that DiGiovanni rent seeker. Anyway that building has been sitting there fenced off for I believe well over a year. Do you have any idea what it is for? Is it some kind of manufacturing facility?
